I noticed that too. How nice of a "public" institution.

Biographical Profile

B.A., Kean University
M.A., California State University at Northridge (magna cum laude)

Professor Daly received his MA in Linguistics from California State University , Northridge in 2000. John enjoys teaching writing most of all, aside from his interests in socio-linguistic theory. His 12 years experience working in public health research adds another dimension to his interests. His research background translates into years of hands-on experience in writing research documents and papers in the professional world. Two video-workbook collections that he produced and wrote have won awards and are currently used by the Canadian Department of Health. Often linguists do not use their skills to teach grammar and writing, but Professor Daly finds that linguists have a special view on language that may help students—particularly students who have had trouble in these areas in the past. English courses generally are taught from a rule-based perspective. Students become overwhelmed with these rules and often find the exceptions make them impossible to manage. Linguistics view language from a descriptive point of view—that is they understand language in the same way you might organize a sock draw—by dumping the contents on the ground and seeing what goes together until finally ending up with a super-efficient drawer (or deeper understand of grammar and writing). Students often respond to this approach.

If this is a public school, the web site should be open to the public. I would think it would be reasonable for either the State or Congress (as appropriate) to require this of any educational facility receiving public funds.

My message to Mr. Austin:

Who is this fool John Daly you have on your staff, and why does he call himself "Professor?"

Thank you. I sent this message to the POS and copied all of the others on your list. I wonder how their email server is doing.




o: Prof. John Daly



I am truly astounded by your email. What a tremendous lack of character on your part. If you want to debate, make it a debate based on truth and ideas. Your tirade against this student is unforgivable. You should be ashamed, but alas, I fear you are beyond shame. You are no doubt convinced that you are correct in your behavior.



You are an embarrassment to the educational community. I spent over five years working with people like you. (God how I hate that term!) I am not surprised that such sad examples of the educational community are still teaching. I’m just saddened. Fortunately you are not an instructor for my child. I just feel sorry for the all too many minds that you will contaminate with your stupidity. There have been numerous articles about the “dumbing down” of our educational system. You are a clear example of the results of this sad decline. You sir, are without honor!

Any emails to the "Professor" will just go into the bit bucket. We need to find out who controls the purse strings for this so called "college" and pressure them to shut it down completely.

so far, two of the addressees have read my email to them. I guess their email server is more robust than I thought.

For immediate release:

WCCC investigating controversial e-mail
Adjunct instructor’s comments gain national attention

WASHINGTON TWP. (Nov. 18, 2005) – Officials at Warren County Community College are investigating political comments about the war in Iraq made by an adjunct instructor to a student via an e-mail message.

Responding earlier this week to a student’s invitation to attend a student club event, John Daly, an adjunct instructor of Basic Writing and Developmental English, e-mailed the student with a host of his own personal beliefs. The student club event, sponsored by the Young American’s for Freedom, featured Iraq war veteran Lt. Col. Scott Rutter as a guest speaker.

WCCC President Dr. William Austin personally welcomed guests to the event, held on Thursday, and introduced Rebecca Beach, president and secretary of the newly formed club. Lt. Col. Rutter’s talk was well received, and deemed a success by attendees.

WCCC is further investigating Mr. Daly’s conduct and his expression of views in the classroom and on campus.

Indeed, Mr. Daly’s comments have caused much controversy on and off campus. Dr. Austin said, “I personally find Mr. Daly’s e-mail disgraceful and offensive, yet I must maintain that the college be a place for free expression, ideas, and open debate.”

Dr. Austin added, “We must remember that Mr. Daly is just one instructor out of many here. These are apparently his personal political views. He does not represent the college’s views, mission, and core values. We are a small community college and are here to serve the community and will continue to do so.”

The college will continue to keep its pulse on this issue while maintaining its high standards of professionalism and integrity of all concerned, noted Dr. Austin.

WCCC Chairman of the Board, Ed Smith, said, “We are fortunate to live in a world where so many brave men and women are willing to fight and die for our freedoms, including the right to express one’s opinions.”
